Ask yourself this: why are all humans the same? We don’t have different breeds, we don’t have strange mutants. Each human can be replaced by any other. None of us have created mutations other than skin color and slight alterations in structure over the entire history of the human race. The most primitive humans have the same physical build and same cognitive abilities as any other. Why is that?
I personally think that it is fairly good proof that humans didn’t not all evolve randomly all over the world. It shows that, going back far enough, you can end up with one tribe. All humans are basically the same. As far as I have found, there are no major mutations (tails, claws, etc) in any human ever discovered. We all are very alike. It shows that, for one, we all have some kind of common ancestor. All of us. It also shows that humans as we are know, are not that old. We haven’t had time to adapt like many animals have to our habitat. We learned very quickly that our larger brains means we are at the top of the food chain. We never had to adapt, we only conquered. Even the natives of deep South America have the ability to make tools. Yes, i know, many apes make tool too. But I have yet to see a chimp make a sharp stick, or sharpen a rock and lash it to a long stick. Almost all human societies have the spear in a hallowed position in the evolution of warfare. Meaning all humans have the same abilities of the mind. No other species I can think of have that. Everywhere humans are, we dominate. Even the fairly well integrated tribes are still the top of the local food chain. Amazing if you think about it, we have little fur, no claws, are fairly weak, but we have dominated this planet. Says a lot about how important the mind is.
I don’t know the origin of the species. I don’t know if God* did it, or some random amoeba. I know that it is doubtful that we all randomly evolved all over the planet at much the same time. Too many constants for something as random as evolution to happen that regularly. Of course that brings up a great topic: how the hell did our ancestors get around? I mean, the planet isn’t that small, and that is a lot of land, and, more amazingly, water to cross. It would be an interesting study in why there was such a mass exodus from, what I presume is, the cradle of life (Africa or Mesopotamia) to span the entire globe. (As far as I know every continent that we have been too 9excluding Antarctica) already had humans when the western explorers discovered them.
